She could've made the decision privately. Instead, she decided to allow a pro-suicide group to use her story to advance their agenda.

And why shouldn't she have?

She had to spend her last days in another state, because her home state would not allow her to take her own life.

Maybe that pro-euthanasia group can get that to change.

She could have committed suicide in her home state. She could have taken her own life.

That's simply not true, although it's what the pro-suicide activists would have you believe. No pro-suicide law has ever been necessary - especially not these days. In any state, if you're terminally ill and the end is near, you can opt for hospice care, under which you stop treatment as well as nourishment. You're given large amounts of narcotics for pain management while loved ones drift in and out of your room, saying their goodbyes. She could've opted for hospice at home.

But, for some reason, the pro-suicide activists want to force doctors to give you pills to take at home on your own, even though sometimes the pills don't even work.
